A horror horde of crawl-and-crush giants clawing out of theiearth from mile-deep catacombs!
Man has split the atom and ushered in a new era. But how could he know he would also create Them?
Them! is a landmark movie about giant radiation-mutated ants that gets better with age and boasts remarkable, Academy Award®-nominated special effects. Starring James Whitmore, James Arness and Edmund Gwenn, Them! begins in New Mexico with a child wandering in shock, a ransacked general store - and a battered corpse full of enough formic acid to kill 20 men. It ends with an epic struggle in the 700 miles of storm drains under Los Angeles, where the insect hordes are beaten. But they're not conquered, because they spawned a generation of films about radioactive creatures. Some approximate the terror but few have equaled the artistry of Them!.

Giant ants attack in this 50s classic - 3.5 out of 5 (4/30/2003)
One of the great things about DVDs is that the studios do more than release the modern blockbusters, films in addition to the most notable classics. Recently, there have been several releases of those great little Sci-Fi flicks that I enjoyed as a child, the very films that began my life long enjoyment of movies. The early fifties where a time when America had just entered the atomic age, the use of the A-bomb in World War II, scientific investigation on the affects of radiation on living matter

One of the first, one of the best - 3.75 out of 5 (12/14/2006)
I first saw this movie when I was 7 years old. I was scared to death and it affected my life for years. As an adult, I can now watch this movie over and over. I never get tired of it. The effects are still good after 50 years and the story is well writen. I highly recommend this movie

Great film looks awsome on dvd! - 4.5 out of 5 (12/8/2002)
The transfer is crisp & clear as if it were made today. I was amazed after seeing faded scratched up home video versions years ago. It looks beautiful.
The soundtrack is excellent as well,especially for a mono mix(it's original mix btw for you 5.1 or nothing fanatics). It's loud & clear fully engulfing you in the atmoshere of it all like a good sountrack should.
The film itself is a masterpiece.Awsome,frightening,fun,entertainment that still holds up well today!
So don't miss it!
